I’m curious as to whether these athletes get any kind of financial training or guidance regarding NIL money?
Think about it, the vast majority of 17-20 year olds are pretty clueless when it comes to money in general, taxes, and how quickly it can be blown on stupid stuff (fancy cars, women, jewelry, etc).
Yes, it’s their money and they can do what they want with it but some of these kids are receiving 7 figures, which could be life altering money if played right.

I remeber Saban had something setup for financial literacy. Not sure the current status.
